*** The Elder Scrolls 5 - Skyrim Official Thread ***

So far so good. Some very low res textures though even low res for a console. Maybe why its only a 3.8gb install. Hopefully they will improve later on.
The game seems good from the first 30 mins, although the intro sequence to oblivion was a lot better.
 
I'm thinking there are a few issues with this game as some of the textures are shockingly bad, some just take a while to load. It really looks like an xbox 1 game in parts.... Hopefully this will be patched soon..

Edit - There are reports installing the game forces it into low res mode as there are issues with the 360 hard drive..? Nicely tested this one......

The game is broke big time. Textures fail to load or pop in after a while. I have just run it from disc and some things look better but others worse.
Bethesda are refusing to comment.
Will shelve this until a fix comes along as the patch when started has done nothing.

Surely this came up in testing...?
 
reviews starting to appear...and its been universally well received

alll the reviews say there are low res textures visible but it doesnt detract from the gameplay

Are these based on the 360 version or is this on both consoles?

Anyone get it for the PS3 yet? If so whats the views on that?
 
ign reviewed the 360 version by the look of it and played the pc version as they compared the interfaces

again they mention some shonky textures and some glitching with corpses and flying mammoths

they seem willing to forgive them given the overall scope and vastness of the game and the experience it offers..and so am I
 
Great vid

I imagine this can be fixed with a patch and given the game isn't officially out until tomorrow, one would hope Bethesda have got a patch ready to roll out tomorrow or very shortly after. Unless of course this is a 360 hardware limitation.

I can’t believe how badly they have dropped the ball on this though and of course a patch won't help console players who aren't online or don’t have an internet connection.

Wonder if the low-res texture issue is also applicable to PC.

There is already a 3mb patch for 360 although not heard about what it fixes yet.

So far the game looks great to me no low res textures that i've noticed, the first few minutes I was pretty stunned at how nice it looked. Sure there might be some issues later but for now its far better than i'd hoped for.
